Overview

The Great Resignation has cooled-but what’s taken its place isn’t comfort, it’s caution. Employees are staying, but not necessarily thriving. Welcome to the era of job hugging, where workers cling to roles out of fear, not fulfillment.

As a manager, this presents a new challenge: how do you grow, motivate, and develop your team when external movement is slow and internal mobility is limited?

In this session, you’ll learn how to lead with intention during this stalled season. You'll explore how to spot disengagement early, reframe development goals, and provide meaningful stretch opportunities that upskill your team and reignite purpose. Because when employees stop moving, it’s your leadership that keeps them growing.

Areas Covered in the Session

  • Understand the behavioral and cultural shifts that define the "job hugging" era
  • Identify early signs of quiet disengagement or stagnation among staff
  • Facilitate strategic career conversations with team members-even when promotion is unlikely
  • Develop personalized upskilling strategies and stretch opportunities aligned with team goals
  • Rebuild motivation and team loyalty by connecting daily work to long-term purpose
